 * Yes, fixed. I remember picking up the spelling "dhaim" from some tiatr's transcript... but it is obvious that standard Latin script Konkani reserves the a for the ā sound. I let the Kannada spelling in this entry stay because it represents धय, so maybe it is written ಧಯ in areas where Konkani is written with the Kannada script. I'm also going to delete unless you wish to make a case for its existence (interestingly, searching for it on Google gives Marathi results, so maybe it's an altform or some dialectal variation in Marathi? -- 𝓑𝓱𝓪𝓰𝓪𝓭𝓪𝓽𝓽𝓪(𝓽𝓪𝓵𝓴)  09:39, 4 February 2021 (UTC)
 * I looked at the Google results for जेवाण, and if you've never heard anyone say it, then I would characterise this term as rather than Marathi, and we haven't decided how to treat . The spelling is documented in Grierson at

 * Wikipedia does not consider Maharashtrian Konkani (of which Kuḍāḷī is likely one) to be a part of the Konkani dialect continuum. Which L2 header do we put जेवाण under? -- 𝓑𝓱𝓪𝓰𝓪𝓭𝓪𝓽𝓽𝓪(𝓽𝓪𝓵𝓴) 11:48, 4 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Perhaps looking at File:Geographic Distribution of Native Konkani Speakers.png and File:Konkani_languages.png might be helpful. The description for the Venn diagram is:
 * A Venn diagram of the various languages and dialects in the Konkani family, according to the ISO 639 classification. In red brackets are the ISO 639 codes. Some linguists consider the dialects of Maharashtrian Konkani to be a part of Marathi, hence a yellow line around these two. The classification of various dialects inside [kok] is quite subjective and can vary from source to source.


 * My understanding is that the Wiktionary code text refers to the oval labelled text, which includes both Goan Konkani and . Maharashtrian Konkani has its own oval with the code text. Given this situation Maharashtrian Konkani could have its own L2 header, but the problem with that is  and possibly  would be the only entries in that L2 header until there's more data.  is perhaps the most prominent variety of Maharashtrian Konkani. It does sound a bit different from both Marathi and Goan Konkani + . Kutchkutch (talk) 12:37, 4 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Okay, text does refer to Konkani the "macrolanguage" so I suppose a temporary solution would be to put in kok? But it conflicts with what info this IP provided in their drive-by entry that it's "Southern". Maybe we could do kok? -- 𝓑𝓱𝓪𝓰𝓪𝓭𝓪𝓽𝓽𝓪(𝓽𝓪𝓵𝓴)  13:58, 4 February 2021 (UTC)


 * It would be much easier if the Wiktionary code text refers the macrolanguage so that all varieties of ‘Konkani’ can be subsumed under it.
 * At it says:
 * मालवणी म्हणून ओळखली जाणारी ही बोली मूळ कुडाळी किंवा कुडाळदेशकर भाषा आहे.
 * Regarding, ‘Southern’, it does say at :
 * Malvani is spoken in the southern part of Konkan Vibhag, i.e. Sindhudurg district It is very famous language in the southern Konkan region of Maharashtra state
 * कोकण विभाग refers to the . Since, ‘Southern’ might either refer to or  being the southernmost part of the  /  is kok is fine. Kutchkutch (talk) 18:41, 4 February 2021 (UTC)
